2010 Ermitage, Les Dionnières, Domaine Ferraton

Ermitage, Les Dionnieres, Domaine Ferraton
If Les Miaux is quite a glossy, almost showy wine, Les Dionnières is more classic and therefore a little more restrained in youth….but most certainly not without character. Spice, bacon rind, licorice and sousbois dominate the nose; then the palate is powerful and long...in short a benchmark Hermitage, dense but not overweight, honest and giving. I like the hints of aniseed and licorice in the 2010.
Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer, February 2012

The re-emergence of Ferraton as a great producer has taken awhile, and for a year or so I felt that the quality of the wines actually merited greater plaudits than those hitherto garnered. That changed with the 2009s when a commentator who shall remain nameless, offered lavish praise, a praise which I suspect is equally merited with the excellent range of 2010s.Damien Brisset has some very well located vines and is now exploiting their potential with real skill.
